SHOW NEWS

Having established itself as a leading trade fair in Germany, the USA and China, Automotive Testing Expo opened its doors in India with great success. Taking place at the HITEX Exhibition Centre in Hyderabad, Automotive Testing Expo India 2010 was hailed a hit by exhibitors and visitors alike.

Ducom Instrument’s director, Anirudh Dube, an exhibitor at the show, commented, “This is a good place for us to be, and especially to meet people from the R&D side of the Indian automotive industry. It’s a busy show and we got good leads. It’s always good to see large amounts of important people from the OEMs – these people are not easy to meet so this show has provided us with a great opportunity.”

Visitors were equally impressed. Sunil Kumar Chippa, senior executive at TVS Motor Company, one of India’s largest automotive organisations, said, “I’m here to discover the latest testing technology and equipment and it’s a great show. It has the latest technology and many people to meet.”

And there’s better news yet, as it’s been confirmed that Automotive Testing Expo India will return in 2012 – this time in the country’s automotive hub, Chennai. "Automotive Testing Expo India 2010 has been a great success so far, and with India being one of the fastest-growing automotive markets, I am looking forward to building on this year’s event. Automotive Testing Expo India 2012 in Chennai promises to be bigger and even better," said Dominic Cundy, MD at show organiser UKIP Media & Events.

Hyderabad is one of India’s most vibrant and modern cities, with huge investment from global high-tech and IT companies. This centrally located city has had vast investment during the last five years, which has given rise to a high-quality international standard of infrastructure.

The show will benefit from brand-new purpose-built exhibition halls masterminded and built by one of the most successful German construction companies in India. The halls offer excellent quality, air-conditioning and all exhibitor services, along with beautifully landscaped gardens and outstanding levels of cleanliness and attention to detail.

Hyderabad’s impressive architecture and commitment to investment goes right the way through to top-quality five-star hotels, with a seven-star hotel likely to be available by the time of the show. Most important of all, however, is the city’s central location in India. One-hour flights connect Hyderabad with Bangalore and Chennai; one hour and 20 minutes is the flight time to Mumbai just south of Pune; and Delhi is two hours away by air. Visitors will have the chance to use the roads and no doubt test vehicles en-route to the show, as Chennai and Bangalore are within eight and 12 hours’ driving time. Rail options will give visitors a low-cost alternative to get to this well-connected central Indian location.

Winning Formula

Exhibitors can be assured that the successful formula that has been applied to the show in Germany, USA and China will once again be applied here. Intensive research and marketing will be carried out throughout India and the adjoining countries to ensure the best visitors from key decision-makers in car, truck, and bus OEMs, as well as related component and subsystems suppliers.

As always, your team will include Tony Robinson, CEO of UKIP Media & Events, and Dominic Cundy, Worldwide Sales and Marketing Director of the Automotive Testing Expo series of shows; David Hunt and Jason Sullivan will be your international customer support executives, working alongside other members of the UKIP Media & Events team.

We look forward to working with you and helping you develop new business opportunities and ventures in the incredibly fast-growing automotive industry of India.
